Miss Harper accompanied some pupils to the final farewell for the Oor Wullie Bucket Trail at the SEC on Friday. What a fantastic time they had – they even made some new friends!

Primary 5 Easter Gardens
IN RME Primary 5 pupils learned about the Christian tradition of creating Easter Gardens. Teams worked cooperatively to find objects to represent the important features of the story. Look how imaginative we have been!
Primary 5 have Fun with Fairtrade Ingredients
We know that Fairtrade foods can be more expensive but we have learned that farmers get a better price for their products and communities can use their Fairtrade Premium to make life better for everyone.
Today pupils in Primary 5 made Chocolate Banana Flower Muffins using Fairtrade cocoa, sugar, bananas and chocolate buttons! It was hard work but the results were worth it!
Primary 5 Play the Trading Game
Primary 5 pupils learned about Fairtrade across the world when they played the Trading Game this week. Each team was allocated a country, different resources and different amounts of money – and were tasked with producing shapes which earned them money!
Pupils developed skills in using different equipment to create shapes, accounting, cooperation and communication! Teams used their money to buy additional resources or traded resources with other countries, India was the winning country with over £4000 earned!
Primary 5 at Pizza Express
Miss Harper’s Primary 5 pupils had a wonderful time making pizzas at Pizza Express last week. Thanks to Mrs Brooker for organising and to our parent helpers for coming along! 
Christmas Jumper Day
Everyone at Wallace got into the spirit of Christmas jumper day today – including the staff!
Under the Sea
We have been learning about whales and we were really excited today when Aidan brought in a real whale tooth for us to examine. We couldn’t believe how heavy it was!
Handling Information
Primary 2 were learning about how to organise and display information.
First of all we had a bundle of bricks which we arranged to find out which colour we had most of. We realised that it was much easier to stack them up…it looked a bit like a graph!
After the bricks we looked at how to sort our shoes!
We sorted them into a graph too…
There are not-shiny velcro shoes, boots, slip ons and shiny velcro shoes.
We talked about why there were no lace up shoes and most people said that they had velcro shoes because they felt safer and were easy to fasten.
